I rip a CD with abcde + distmp3. Ie. my workstation (with the via-rhine
card creates the WAV files on an NFS volume and distributes the jobs of
converting them to OGG format between 6 other machines. The results are
stored ans postprocessed on the NFS volume again.

So the network load is quite high (CPU load > 3). But the NFS is not the
problem, because it also happens without using the NFS volume.

AMD K6/2-400 on an ASUS P2A-B, 256 MB RAM (since I use KDE, it uses all
the RAM and 40 MB swap ;-), Matrox G450, SB Live with Alsa drivers (the
problem also occurs without the sound drivers), one IDE disk (IBM, 8 GB)
and two IDE CD-ROMs.

Yes, the above output is from the non-working state.

Thanks a lot,
